A Saturday Morning Reflection

And as the sun rises again I thank God for the new day.

Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once.
~Lillian Dickson



I have always believed that in my life only I can dictate how I am going to live it, this is not to say that I don't listen or pay attention to what others may suggest but ultimately the decisions are mine to make it good or bad, awesome or mediocre, happy or sad, fun or boring, loving or hateful, well I think you get the point.

To every situation out there there is its opposite and I refuse to choose the one that promotes negativity, life is too short to waste it, and I realized a long time ago that wasted days will never come back, they are gone with the wind forever and ever.

I am definitely playing the cards that are being dealt to me and being the bad gambler that I am I try to play them right, I don't like to gamble and prefer to pursue the right things from the get go, definitely spending my time trying to achieve my dreams as they are in my head take a good chunk of my time but when you love something and its incorporated into your daily life it really isn't a hard thing to do and it actually is fun doing it.

Living in a Social Network time where we are all so connected I read the statuses my peers post and can't help but wonder how much of what I read there is true. How many of us say, "Good morning FaceBook Friends I am so happy today" and yet that is not true but must say it to face the world cause I must not let them know that it is the other way around. As I said before one must become responsible for one's own destiny and make it work, but always recognize when someone is trying to help and accept the help as a stepping stone to a better tomorrow.

I am blessed to have a wonderful loving family that always supports me in all my decisions and so my pursue for happiness is not dream but a reality and as I sit here writting this I count my blessings and thank God for all He does for me on a daily basis, and for always helping me to look for a positive side to any bad situation that comes my way.

Yes, I am lucky to have a good life and I choose to make it easy for me. Keeping my faith and feeding my soul with nothing but good intentions definitely helps to achieve those goals and dreams in my head.

And so with a good head over my shoulders and my heart in my hand I am ready for the next stage of my life. All those that want to ride along with me are free to join me and jump on the band wagon at any time, know that you will always be welcomed.
